Williamsburg Outlet Mall, originally Outlets Ltd.,[1] was a 250,000-square-foot (23,000 m2) outlet shopping complex located in Williamsburg, Virginia. The shopping center had 40 stores.[2] It opened in 1983.[3]

After years of declining traffic, the mall closed in late 2013.[4] Then most stores moved to Williamsburg Premium Outlets.[5] A plan was made to replace it with a marketplace.[6] Demolition started in 2014.[7] The developer, a consortium of Vistacor, LLC and Armada Hoffler Properties, Inc., built a 131,000 square foot marketplace anchored by Harris Teeter and Walgreens. The project opened in 2016 and it cost $25 million.[5]
